At my size, there aren't many options available for me in longline bras. The construction of the corset is somewhat decent. The cups have barely any support at all. They are flimsy and don't quite fit true to cup size, leaving gaping. But the underwire does help with lift which is good. It will work to help with shaping and my wedding dress fortunately is kot dependent on the cups in this thing to hold things together. It will work, but I had hoped for something more.
